The Lies We Believe

The Lies We Believe

“Do not worry about tomorrow.”

-MATTHEW 6:34

Most
of us, from time to time or nearly all of the time, worry about
something – our health,
our finances, our loved ones, and so on. Yet the Scriptures say to take
no thought for your lives and be anxious for nothing. Why is worry a
sin? I know we consider it “only human,” but worry really implies a lack
of trust in God. It is believing a lie. Identify the lie and you can
quickly discover the Truth. What is the lie? That God is somehow less
than sufficient, that perhaps He will not come through for us.

So
you see, the enemy gets us
to believe a lie, and then gets us to think that we are just being
“human.” So then we accept something less than the normal Christian life
– overcoming – and think that is just the way it is. Remember: satan
has no power apart from our belief in his lie.
